[QUOTE="mjleedam, post: 1261875, member: 206879"] I am a relative newbie to macs and this is the first problem I have encountered. I was prompted to upgrade the OS X yesterday to 10.6.8 so this I did. During the process I was prompted to perform a manual restart by holding down the power button and then restarting. Following the restart, I got an error message: Finder quit unexpectedly. On clicking "OK" the same error window appears ad infinitum (actually, I got fed up clicking after about 30 tries). Most programs won't load; and in the ones that do, I can't type any text as the error box takes priority for text entry. I have tried reinstalling from the supplied CD, but because Finder won't load I can't access any CD files. The error box even takes priority over the terminal window. Any help would be most appreciated. Cheers! [/QUOTE]
